Firefox Support Forum

When a new tab is opened via launching a URL from another application on Windows (e.g. Outlook), the tab close buttons disappear, even with only two tabs. By carefully grabbing the right window border and dragging *inwards* (i.e. making the window narrower), the buttons suddenly appear on all tabs, thus illustrating that it's not a problem with the tab widths.

The tabs are above the address bar and the refresh button is at the end of the address bar but not a lot else is different. Private Browsing has to be accessed from the Tools menu. In other words, most of the features that were to be on the front screen are absent. Thanks for your assistance. Craig

How do I turn off the "switch to tab" feature? Why? The site I want runs a Java program, and I want the program to run multiple times. I looked in Tools > Options > Tabs and found no way to turn off the "switch to tabs." I looked thru the entire Options and found nothing. I thought Tools > Options > Advanced might hold the key to a solution, but I found nada.

Somehow a picture of a nice young lady has appeared to the right of the heading on my copy of Firefox. A brownish picture that obscures other material so it is having a very negative effect. How do I remove it please - permanently

It was SO ULTRA PRACTICAL because one did not need to bookmark stuff that they only need to work on the next day...and it disappeared from the latest version of firefox...Or is the option hidden somewhere? thanx

There is a backup button in FF4 that is larger than the round one in FF3. But to the right of the forward button there used to be a dropdown that would list the last dozen pages. Can this function be enabled in FF4 or do I need to look for a plug-in to do this. I can't believe they took it out.

Spent 3 months modifying google and firefox then moved to a new computer, FF didn't install from other hard drive. Now there's sponsored links, ads and annoying ff box below search box and history won't go away either. Is this another 3 month project?

I would like the drop down arrow in the location bar to show my bookmarks instead of showing what I have recently typed. I only use the drop down menu to go to my most visited sites, so this would be prefect. Is there an extension that will do this, or something similar?

An example is my bicycle club website. When I click on "View", instead of being able to view the item, I can only save it. On IE I can view it as well as save it. Is there a setting I have to change or is this a virus protection feature?

I upgraded to Firefox 4 Win 7, but a needed extension is incompatible with version 4 and automatically disabled. I need to revert to the previous version of Firefox until the necessary extension is updated for compatibility with Firefox 4. I have located on my hard drive the most recent installation file, Firefox Setup 3.6.6.exe. I need to know the best way to revert to that version and preserve and transfer all my bookmarks and settings. Thanks!

Firefox 4 affects other programs on my DoD computer. I use 4 at home with no issues, but I can not use 4 at work. I just want to know if I can use 3.6.17 indefinitely.

When I was asked to upgrade Firefox it did say it was not presently compatible with Google Tool Bar. I have lost most of my buttons for Google now. How long will it be before this compatibility issue is resolved? Can I go backwards to the previous version?
